The updated targets specified in the plan aim for France to reach 48.1 GW of PV capacity by 2030 and 140 GW by 2050. To meet the 2030 goal, the plan calls for the annual deployment of 3,700 MW to 5,500 MW of new PV systems. By the end of March, France had reached 17.15 GW of cumulative installed PV capacity.
Mandatory solar: Solar PV is mandatory for living roofs for commercial and industrial buildings or covered car parks occupying 500 m2 or more of ground surface. Power to the people: France’s current policy framework is supportive of collective self-consumption and energy communities, with flexible regulations supporting prosumers.
Total Installed Capacity: In 2023, France installed 4.0 GW of new PV capacity, bringing the cumulative total to 24.6 GW. This includes 2.5 GW of decentralized PV and 1.45 GW of centralized PV.
France installed solar PV capacity at the end of 2022 sat at 15.7GW, of which 2.6GW was added during last year and accounted for more than half of the total renewable capacity added in 2022, which reached over 5GW. Among other updated target is France’s plan to add between 5.5-7GW of solar capacity per year.
Overall there has been significant growth in PV capacity within France, with around 2,229 MW added to the grid between January-September 2023, reaching a cumulative capacity of 19.0 GW of installed PV capacity. However, there are issues to the lack of construction capacity and training and employment in the sector.
France remains one of the top performing countries when it comes to the development of Rooftop solar policy and practices, but deliverables still need to be achieved. France's photovoltaic (PV) policies are developed within the National Low Carbon Strategy and the Energy Programme Decree.
